178 Review of the Year 2021

Our anniversary show is always a Review of the Year, where Ed picks his favourites from the previous year’s shows.  Now we are broadcasting Remastered shows on the alternate weeks, Ed takes his pick from just the new shows, 24 of them in the past year.  We broadcast our first show in August 2014. August 2021 marks the end of our seventh year of shows, and begins our eighth.  We had a good audience for the show too, something that doesn’t always happen in the holiday season.
